Problem configuring dropbox with systemd on Wayland+sway+waybar

I'm running sway and waybar.

I've done my best to search around the forums and elsewhere online using a range of terms but haven't been able to find anything. I'm new here, but working to learn.

I've installed Dropbox from the AUR, and successfully set it up with launch on login using systemd. I can verify this using both systemctl and dropbox-cli commands (syncing is happening, etc.)

As described in the wiki article, starting Dropbox like this means that the Dropbox icon doesn't show up in waybar (although it does if I manually start Dropbox from the command line). I understand the instruction on the wiki to make a drop-in file for the systemd service, but the only listed example is for Xorg, and won't start unless an X session is launched.

Is there a Wayland equivalent to XAUTHORITY? Or is there another workaround that plays nice with the systemd service?
